Human Greed

Su Yi didn't like to hold hands with Xu Ruoxing in the past, even if they were pretending, they seldom held hands, most of them were holding hands, Su Yi held her arm, or asked her to hold Su Yi's, so the fingers intertwined, the number of times There were very few of them, and the one that impressed me the most was that time when Su Yi had a bad cold. It happened to coincide with her grandma's birthday, and she accompanied Su Yi home. After reaching out her hand for a while, she thought Su Yi was going to hold her arm, but just as she stretched out her hand, Su Yi grabbed her.

Su Yi had a fever, and her hands seemed to be on fire, burning scorchingly. The palms of the two touched each other, and the heat flowed from her palms. Xu Ruoxing didn't let go of her hands, but just looked down at the two's fingers clasped as they are now.

That day, she thought that Su Yi had a fever, and she was confused and mistook herself.

what about now?

Xu Ruoxing shouted: "Su Yi."

Su Yi tilted her head, her pupils were very bright, reflecting the flashing lights, she actually looked pretty when she smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were curved like crescent moons, Su Yi was puzzled: "Huh? What's wrong?"

After speaking, she rubbed against her, and squeezed Xu Ruoxing even harder. The heat hit her, and Xu Ruoxing found that she was greedy for the temperature again, and shook her head: "It's nothing."

She said, "Go in."

Su Yi smiled at her, held her hand and stood at the elevator entrance. When getting on the elevator, a customer came by and pressed the button for the fourth floor. Su Yi said, "Honey, the second floor."

Xu Ruoxing pressed the second floor.

When she got to the box, her colleagues had already sat down, and when she saw the two of them standing up again, Su Yi said, "Sit down, have you ordered?"

Everyone shook their heads: "Not yet, team leader."

"That's right." Sister Huan said, "We don't know Mr. Xu's taste very well either."

As they spoke, they handed the menu to Su Yi, who said, "You guys order first, and we'll just add two more dishes."

After all, I came here for a treat, how could I patronize myself to order food? Although Su Yi lost his memory, he did not forget the etiquette. Everyone looked at each other, finally ordered a few dishes, and handed the menu to Su Yi. Su Yi asked Xu Ruoxing: "Wife ,what did you eat?"

The tone was very casual, as if they had had countless conversations like this. The ears of the colleagues were all pricked up. Two of them pretended to be playing on their mobile phones and posted in the group: [Guess who I am having dinner with. 】

There were team members who didn't show up in the group, and question marks popped up one after another, group chat: [Team leader, and Mr. Xu. 】

[You guys definitely can't imagine what the team leader is like in private, he's too soft! 】

[And I'm so dependent on Mr. Xu, one wife at a time. 】

【what! The team leader actually calls his wife? 】

Seeing them swiping the screen in surprise, the person who sent the message was satisfied, put down the phone, and the two of them were still discussing what to eat. Xu Ruoxing said, "It's fine, I'm not picky."

"Don't you not like sweets?" Su Yi subconsciously said this, after the two of them were taken aback, they looked at each other, Xu Ruoxing asked her: "Do you remember?"

"No." Su Yi smiled: "Do you not like sweets?"

Xu Ruoxing nodded.

Su Yi's smile deepened: "I knew it."

Leaning into Xu Ruoxing's ear, she said coquettishly, "I remember your hobbies even when I lose my memory."

Xu Ruoxing was speechless. She really didn't expect Su Yi to remember her own taste. When ordering food with Su Yi, she did deliberately avoid these sweet dishes. Su Yi once ordered a dish of rock sugar corn kernels. She didn't touch it, but when Su Yi asked, she said that she didn't like sweets very much. She thought Su Yi had forgotten it a long time ago, but now that she has lost her memory, she can still remember it.

Su Yi finally ordered a few dishes and handed over the menu. Some of them drove, so they didn't drink. After ordering drinks, everyone sat with Xu Ruoxing and felt a bit restrained. Barely able to speak, the scene will not be too embarrassing, it is considered enjoyable.

In the past, every new employee in her department would have a dinner party and welcome ceremony, but Su Yi seldom participated in it. Now, she took this opportunity to get acquainted with them.

"Team leader, replace wine with tea, I propose a toast to you, I hope you and Mr. Xu will have a good relationship for a hundred years!"

"Leader, I hope you get better soon."

"Team leader, go back to the company early."

Everyone chatted about toasting, Su Yi drank from the cup and felt a little bloated, she got up and said, "I'm going to the toilet."

Before Xu Ruoxing could speak, Su Yi said to her, "Honey, can you accompany me?"

Is it so clingy?

Everyone's eyes were wide open. Xu Ruoxing got up under the eyes of everyone, and accompanied Su Yi to the bathroom. When he was about to get to the bathroom, the door of the box near the bathroom was opened, and a voice came out: "Su Lu, you can't justify not drinking this glass of wine. Just now After winning such a beautiful lawsuit, I heard that Huaihai has hired you as their consultant."

The man's voice was a little heavy: "You guys spread the news fast enough."

Huaihai, Su Yi's company.

The two people stopped at the door at the same time, turned their heads to look at the box, the door was not closed tightly, a man could be seen holding a cup through the gap, he was Su Yi's father.

Xu Ruoxing contacted him half a day ago, and his assistant said, "Su Li is in court, and I'll ask him to call you back when it's over."

But until now, no call back.

She hasn't told Su Yi about this yet, but she guesses that Su Yi already knew about it. Su Yi didn't move, and said to Xu Ruoxing: "When I was young, my parents often quarreled. They often quarrel because of the same case.”

She didn't understand at that time, the first quarrel she thought was her fault, she cautiously flattered both sides, talked softly to her father, and then ran over to act like a baby with her mother.

Until later, there were more and more disputes, and she was caught in a dilemma. Finally, after a quarrel broke out between the two of them, she cried and said: "If you quarrel again, get a divorce!"

She was only a few years old at that time, and she didn't know what divorce was at all. She just heard her parents say a lot, so she remembered that her father and mother pointed the finger at her.

"Without you, we would have divorced long ago!"

Although he didn't say it clearly, Su Yi knew that she was a drag on the careers of the two of them. Later, when the two really divorced, she blamed herself. Was it because of what she said that day that caused their divorce? Find a little leeway for maneuver, and start to find their love for themselves from the remaining gaps.

But the more they searched, the more disappointed they became, and the more they searched, the more they discovered that they didn't love her at all.

Her father was right. Without her, they would have divorced a long time ago. She said you should get a divorce, but she just took advantage of the situation to let them all have a step down. They pushed all their emotions to her without any scruples, which made her suffer in fear. Everything, even how old she was at that time.

She later moved to live with her grandma and refused to see her parents. She would just have a meal with them and talk about innocuous topics during the holidays.

When was the last time you saw her father?

Su Yi forgot.

She looked at Xu Ruoxing: "Do your parents fight?"

Xu Ruoxing shook his head: "Very little."

Her father took care of the family, and her mother was also sensible. Since she was a child, she seldom heard any disputes, let alone quarrels, between her parents. Su Yi said, "I'm so happy."

It was the happiness she dreamed of.

She wanted to never be a complete family, she could accept her parents' discord, but she couldn't accept this way, Xu Ruoxing whispered: "Su Yi."

"I'm going to the bathroom." Su Yi blinked and asked Xu Ruoxing: "Will you wait for me here?"

Xu Ruoxing knew that she wanted to sort out her emotions, so she nodded and didn't follow.

Su Yi went into the bathroom, scooped up a handful of cold water, and splashed it on her face. Memories from her childhood came flooding back, and the emotions that had nowhere to hide were attacking unscrupulously.

"I don't have time to accompany Su Yi tonight, so come back early tonight."

"I'm not free either, the law firm wants to have a dinner together."

"Can't you push it? All day long, Su Yi is not your daughter? Her father is not dead yet!"

"Be careful what you say! Let me accompany Su Yi, and you! What are you doing at night? To accompany the client? How?"

"Su Chang, tell your mother again!"

"I don't want to quarrel with you, you send Su Yi to my mother."

"I want to send you off."

As a result, one of them was carrying a bag and the other was holding a car key, and they just left the quarreling home, leaving her alone, looking at the empty living room alone.

Su Yi's heart throbbed badly, and her face was pale. She pressed her hands on the edge of the sink, and her fingers pinched deeply into the crevice of the sink. She didn't even notice that her fingertips were squeezed and deformed.

Just now Su Changhe's high-spirited and high-pitched voice strongly stimulated her, Su Yi frowned tightly, feeling that the air was getting thinner, and the space began to distort, she took a deep breath, like a dying fish, desperately sucking water, Su Yi's figure Unsteady, she was supported by someone when leaning to the side, and a voice came from behind: "Su Yi?"

It's Xu Ruoxing.

Su Yi turned her head, Xu Ruoxing's eyebrows and eyes were extremely clear at this moment, pulling her out of the vortex, and the twisted surroundings slowly returned to their original shape.

Xu Ruoxing was worried: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Su Yi said, "I suddenly have a headache, maybe the car accident hasn't completely healed yet."

Xu Ruoxing understood: "I will tell your colleague later, shall we go first?"

Su Yi said, "No, I'm fine."

After she finished speaking, she smiled at Xu Ruoxing, her complexion was a little pale, Xu Ruoxing didn't say much, when she and Su Yi went out of the bathroom, it happened that the door of Su Changhe's box opened, and some people came out one after another, Su Changhe was surrounded by the stars. Middle: "Su Lu, you can't forget us when you go to Huaihai, introduce some clients to us?"

"That's natural." Su Changhe smiled happily, Su Yi stood behind them but clenched his fists, watching those people leave for a moment, Su Changhe turned into another corridor, and Su Yi looked away.

She was silent for a few seconds, and Xu Ruoxing shouted behind her, "Su Yi."

Su Yi turned her head, the light in the corridor hit Xu Ruoxing's body, reflected in her pupils, her eyes were clear, Xu Ruoxing said: "It's not your fault."

It's not your fault they fight.

It's not your fault that they divorced.

The tip of Su Yi's nose was sour, as if she was a child, she would be afraid after her parents quarreled, and shrank in her own world, imagining that it was just like what her parents said, that she would be fine without her.

But then no one comforted her.

Until her parents divorced, no one said a word to her, it was not your fault.

This comforting sentence, which has been late for many years, crushed Su Yi's emotions. The corners of her eyes were red, she looked up at Xu Ruoxing, bit her lips, turned around suddenly, put her arms around Xu Ruoxing's waist, hugged her tightly, and buried her head in her In his arms, hair wrapped around Xu Ruoxing's chin, itching, and Xu Ruoxing felt his chest also itch.
